The Iconic

Hey everyone, I'm so sorry I've be absent on here I have been so busy moving house, and we've had no internet for a while (bad excuses but oh well I'm here now.)

Today I wanted to share a post about a new Australian online shopping site called The Iconic (like we need more temptations right? haha) that has launched in the last couple of months that brings us brands like Bluejuice, Ksubi, Minkpink, Stylestalker, Lonely Hearts, Wildfox and Shakuhachi just to name a few of the many brands they have on offer. The range they have is insane, they have items for all price ranges and tastes from the casual girl to the more fashion forward, they even have clothing for men. I know I've already picked out a couple of  key items I'm going to buy.

Here is a bit of what The Iconic say about themselves:



THE ICONIC is Australia's newest and most exciting online destination for fashion and
foot wear and was launched approximately a month ago. Bringing you an Australian lens on global trends, THE ICONIC will offer the best in men's and women's global fashion and footwear.

WHAT MAKES THE ICONIC UNIQUE?
Guided by fashion expert and former Project Runway Australia judge Sarah Gale, THE
ICONIC will feature regular trend reports, style tips and everything you need to know to
create the best looks. "I'm so excited to be part of this new venture. It's wonderful to be able
to showcase the best Australian talent and international labels on this new platform. Online
retail is definitely the future within this industry," Sarah said.



Pretty cool hey?  I've used the site a couple times and found it really easy to navigate, I really don't like when online stores don't have buttons where you can limit  the search of what you are looking for like size, colour, type etc. So I'm glad they incorporated this in, because it makes for an easier online shopping experience.

Below I've put together some of my favourite items from the store, things I will be getting my hands on in the future.





























Woodford & Co, Indian Tank $68.95
Silent Theory, Basic Oversized L/S Tee $39.95
Finders Keepers, Santa Monica Dream Playsuit $99.95
Diavolina, Willie $119.95 
Therapy, Jagger Flatform $29.95
Ladakh, Illusionist Romper $69.95
Living Doll, Marrakech Skirt $54.95 

These are some of my favourite items from The Iconic, the best part is they do nationwide free shipping, and if you sign up to their mailing list you can get a $10 Voucher to use on the store. You can check out The Iconic Here!

Has anyone ever checked out The Iconic? What are your favourite items?
Let me know what you think of it, talk soon!

Stila Naturaleyes Eyshadow Palette

A while ago my sister went overseas and I gave her a list of things I wanted her to get me I asked for the Urban Decay Naked Palette and it was sold out at the Sephora she went to. So she got me the Stila Naturaleyes Eye shadow Palette instead and I'm so glad she did. This palette is seriously amazing, I'm a really big fan of neutral eyes and a bold lip so this is the perfect palette for me. As you can tell by the pictures this palette gets a fair bit of use, in fact they're the only eye shadows besides my Buxom shadow that I actually use anymore. (picture time)





TR L to R top row: Bare, Kitten, Bliss, Sunset, Sandstone
BR L to R: Champagne, Gilded Gold, Luster, Night Sky, Ebony & Smudge Stick Eyeliner in Damsel
The best part about these shadows are that they are so pigmented I can use a really tiny bit on a brush and it will show up perfectly on my eyes. All the colours are amazing as well especially 'Night Sky' I love that it has little bits of blue glitter mixed with the charcoal eye shadow it looks extremely pretty used  for a smokey eye and I love that it's not such a matte finish. Another great thing about this palette is that it comes with a little book that teaches you how to do different looks using all the different eye shadows, it is really handy especially for beginners who are just getting into playing around with different things. I love the fact that this palette has some of the most coveted Stila colours, and the smudge stick it comes with are constantly talked about. I have to say I absolutely love the smudge stick, it is extremely waterproof and it's so smooth and creamy to apply and, I definitely want a few more of these. The only thing I disliked about the smudge stick was that I wound it too far and it broke off so I lost a bunch of product which I was pretty gutted about. 

I have compared this to my sister's naked palette (which was so conveniently in stock at the other Sephora she went to) and I'm going to say I am so happy I have the Stila palette. I think the Stila palette works a lot better in it's natural form because the eye shadows are quite soft, where as the UD Naked Palette works best when the product is used wet (that's my opinion anyway). I think the only thing that get's points down on this product for me is the packaging, I just think it could be a little more sturdy. But in saying that I definitely 100% recommend this palette to anyone who is looking for a neutral eye palette. It comes with everything you need and if you can get your hands on one I'd say do it! It's perfect for beginners as well as it does come with the book and it has a decent amount of shades. It comes at a price of $39 US with a huge $118 value, you can get it at Sephora or if you're an Aussie like me with no friends or family in the states I'm afraid it's going to cost double just like everything else. You can get it from Mecca Cosmetica for a massive price of $80 AUD. It is quite expensive in Australia but honestly it is so worth it, and I'm glad my sister got it for me.

Has anyone else tried any Stila products? What did you think, or would you buy this?

OOTD: I've Got A Crush On You!






Hi Girls, this outfit is just something fun and comfy I threw together on Sunday when I was out and about. I blogged about it awhile ago but I bought some Wildfox shirts and they finally arrived and they are amazing, the one I'm wearing in this outfit is so lightweight, comfy and it's  the perfect size, totally in love. I've worn this shirt so much lately, and washed it so many times and it hasn't lost shape or anything so I was really pleased. 
I'm wearing it with this bright panel skirt from Temt and my leopard loafers which I'm also in love with. 

I entered this outfit in a competition that Dotti is running called 'style nation' where you upload your outfit to be in the running to win a voucher for Dotti. It would be so so awesome if you could vote for me, to vote go to 'Style Nation here' it would mean a lot. <3

Shirt: Wildfox, Skirt: Temt, Loafers: Dotti, Necklace: Diva, Sunglasses: Equip, Lipstick: Hello Kitty

Hope everyone else is having a lovely week, it's almost the weekend yay, what is everyone up to this weekend?
